Puerto Rican studies  

Definición

  • Puerto Rican studies is an interdisciplinary field of inquiry that emerged in response to the exclusion of research, coursework, and archival materials documenting the Puerto Rican migration to and experience within the United States. While initially formed in reaction to student demands for Puerto Rican history courses during the 1960s, the field has evolved to incorporate a wide range of disciplines and perspectives generated by scholars from across the United States and around the world.
